The group's big break came when, at the end of summer 1976, German television producer Michael 'Mike' Leckebusch (of Radio Bremen) requested the group for his show Musikladen. However, the group rigorously toured discos, clubs and even country fairs to earn a reputation for themselves. The album's commercial performance was initially lukewarm. As Maizie Williams' voice was not considered suitable for recording purposes by Farian, and a try-out with Bobby Farrell performing ' No Woman No Cry' did not work, Farian decided to use only Liz Mitchell and Marcia Barrett along with his own studio-enhanced voice to create the Boney M. It contained tracks that Marcia Barrett had already recorded with Farian, including the title track and 'Lovin' or Leavin'', both of which were previously recorded in German by another Farian act, Gilla. Farian found model-turned-singer Maizie Williams (originally from Montserrat), Bobby Farrell, a male exotic dancer from Aruba, singer Marcia Barrett from Jamaica who brought in Liz Mitchell, also from Jamaica and a former member of the Les Humphries Singers.Д«oney M.'s first album, Take the Heat off Me, was released in 1976.
